Zsunami - Upstate Gardens
I first learned about Upstate Gardens about a year ago when I went to Not Your Average Fest, and it’s been a mystery since then why it’s not more common on import menus. Terpy Dabber now is stocking their Zsunami flower after he started carrying their rosin earlier in the year, and if I’m being real their flower hits with better first impressions than the already exceptional rosin.

Rainbow Belts 1.0 - Skunkfoot Farms
A lot of hardcore enthusiasts don’t really like Rainbow Belts because they feel it’s a watered down version of Zkittlez, and while I don’t agree, I understand where that idea comes from. While Rainbow Belts 3.0 is much more limey in flavor, the original Rainbow Belts 1.0 leans much more on the fruity notes of the Z as well as the bright gas from the Do Si Dos to make something that in my opinion is comparable to Z but with some extra quality of life updates that make it easier to grow and be less likely to look ugly in the bag.
